And They Called Palin a Liar...

For talking about "death panels" in Obama's trillion dollar health care 'reform.' But then there was talk of changing the language. Changing what? I thought she was lying?

But now, Paul Krugman, (man-crush of the Left) says this:

"The advisory panel which has the ability to make more or less binding judgments on saying this particular expensive treatment actually doesn't do any good medically and so we are not going to pay for it. That is actually going to save quite a lot of money. We don't know how much yet. The CBO gives it very little credit but, but most, most of the health care economists I talk to think that's going be a really, uh a really major cost saving." (SOURCE)

Wait...what? "Advisory panel?" "Binding judgments?" Not paying for certain treatments? Save "quite a lot of money?" Hmmm... So..a panel that basically has the power of life and death...and if they choose the later they are a...death panel. So, when they called Palin a liar --was it a debate over Semantics, did the Obamatrons really not believe this was in there, or was it a blatant ploy to hide the truth?
